For me, it'd be the Park Starz line of collectibles. They were so cute and gave some park exclusive characters some spotlight, that they didn't have otherwise.​

How about a stuffed Jiminy Cricket??? Its been years since he has appeared on the shelves of the Emporium. My DW travels with one on the back of her w/c and soooo many guests run up to her when we are at WDW and ask where they can get one. Many CM's also comment on how rare Jiminy items are to be found anymore.

any of the classic characters would be welcome, its all getting so rare except for maybe pooh, alice, etc. Everything now is toy story, moana, tiana, and all the princesses really forced in every shop. it wouldn't hurt them to offer some of the classic characters again. I miss the ceramic japan figurines that they use to have. Most can be found on ebay or in antique shops but I remember when the emporium use to sell nice things like that, now its all generic or catered to the preschool set only.

It seems like ever since Wishes went away, he's rather hard to come by.....which I agree should not be the case haha!

The Ink and Paint collection they released back in early 2020 was an absolutely splendid example of how classic characters can truly empower the world of merchandise still. Hopefully, they figure out new ways to introduce them with products in the near future.

Vinylmations. Granted, they pumped so many of those out so fast that they ran out of things to make into Vinylmations.

And now, they've switched over to Funko Pops.
There are soooo many ride-specific sets they could've done and it's a true shame that they left when they did as I still feel like there were so many other opportunities still left to explore!

I know there is currently a 50th anniversary MK map at WDW (when it's in stock), but both WDW and DL should ALWAYS have good quality maps of the parks suitable for framing available along with attraction posters.
I picked up that 50th map at WDW on October 1st, and I was pleased to find a similar one at Disneyland Paris when I was there at the beginning of the month. I haven't the space to hang or frame them, but I do like having them.

For my contribution to the thread - I wish Disney would ressurect the line of Monorail Playset toys and expand with newer WDW offerings. I know they released new Monorail and Castle sets for the 50th, but imagine if they'd been releasing new playsets all these years - a playset of the Expedition: Everest, the Floating Mountains, the Tower of Terror . . . not to mention what I'd give simply to see them ressurect the old display they had at Once Upon a Toy. I got so much joy out of staring at that thing!

Metal buttons.. not pins but the big metal buttons that were inexpensive and you could have them in each land. Great inexpensive colorful collectible for kids or adults. Pins are nice but they are expensive and you have to be really close sometimes to even know what they are.
I think some of the best souvenirs right now are pullback cars.. like the expedition Everest or jungle cruise one. Well made and inexpensive and vibrant. I would like to see more of that.

I'm a collector of the Olszewski attraction and Main St miniatures. The problem is they didn't do a full set. They flooded the market with some, made others really rare, and then didn't do others at all. I'd love versions of Space Mountain, WDW PotC, Muppets 3D, RnRC, HToT, IaSW, etc. It'd be absolutely awesome to have them do versions of the streets of Liberty Square, and Tomorrowland.

I wish they'd bring back something like that, and expand the selection.
